Three Paragraphs on Disorder

A lot of things appear disorderly, but aren’t. Pi, for instance, is 3.1415926535897932384626433832795028841971693993751058209749445923078164062862089986280348253421170679. That string of numbers looks pretty random to me. I see no pattern. But in fact, that is the only possible order for the first hundred digits of Pi.

I wonder how many of the things God does or allows are like that. We see no meaning in them. To us, they seem all out of order. God does not appear to be in control of our situation. But we must remember that our understanding is so very minuscule, whereas his is vast, boundless.

“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.”
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭55‬:‭8‬-‭9‬ ‭KJV‬‬
